What could account for such a bizarre fluctuation of the populace? War? Famine? Rampant cannibalism?-->'''Max:''' CANNIBALISM! I VOTE CANNIBALISM!* From ''Dysfunction of the Gods'', when Zeus towers over Sam and Max, demanding to know who they are. Max pulls a cord in his belly, inflating himself to giant size and bellowing in a helium voice:--> '''Max:''' WE ARE SAM AND MAX! CHAMPIONS OF JUSTICE! TORMENTORS OF ROMAN-FEATURED, BEARDED GUYS IN LOOSE-FITTING JAMMIES!!* From ''Christmas, Bloody Christmas''-->'''Sam:''' The prison showers.

Then the suit speaks...-->'''Sam:''' I'm fine, knucklehead. Much like the weasel utilizes its collapsable skull to fit through near-impossible spaces, I have called upon a like ability to collapse all my bones and bulky organs, in order to dupe these uncultured puppies into ''thinking'' they've rolled and pressed me into this unsettling garment.

Maybe they'll go away.** If you have subtitles on, when Max says "pick up that silly object", the subtitles show up as "pick up item #(bunch of numbers)". Also, if you try this during the brief point in the game when Sam and Max are separated, Sam finally says "Look, don't make me come out there!" instead of sobbing, and if you click on the item again, he growls menacingly.* Flint Paper throws a guy through his door window, which is followed by a hail of bullets that make a smiley face, which is then followed by Max pushing said victim off the banister his chin was caught on.-->'''Max:''' Gratuitous acts of senseless violence are ''my'' forte!-->'''Sam:''' You're such an adorable urchin, Max.* The bomb exchange after the opening credits:--> '''Sam:''' Where should I put this so it won't harm anyone we know or care about?\\'''Max:''' Out the window Sam!

"Become me!" "Become yourselves!" "Become the video tapes!"

[[AC:Episode 102: Situation: Comedy]]* "They're probably hiding a cow!"* Max sharing an anecdote on Myra's show about his pal, Sam, and something that happened the other day.--> '''Max:''' Well, I was battering this purse-snatcher with a broken parking meter and screaming "Die!

Bear's theme song, which [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial repeatedly iterates that there aren't any real mobsters]]:-->Ted E.

"O, death, where is that guy Sting?"

[[AC:Episode 104: Abe Lincoln Must Die]]* The very first scene, where they use the bug for a Crank Call.--> '''Bug''': '''I. Am. Reborn. I will FEAST on your entrails, and DEVOUR your soul!'''--> ''(Max giggles like a schoolgirl)''--> '''Sam''': You know Max, sneaking the bug into that exorcism was an uncharacteristic stroke of genius.--> '''Max''': Demonic possession is the gift that keeps on giving.** Even better when you use the same bug recording while calling Meesta Pizza:---> '''Max''': So what did they say?---> '''Sam''': The toppings cost extra, and they're all out of entrails.** For even bigger laughs, use the bug when phoning the White House but before recording over the demonic possession speech.---> '''Bug''': '''I will FEAST on your entrails, and DEVOUR your soul!'''---> '''Agent Superball''': I asked you not to call me at work, dear. * "SAM DID IT!"* Max's election speeches, especially this one:--> '''Max''': This election reminds me of a droll story. It seems Chester A. Arthur and the Pope were kayaking down the Amazon one day. Suddenly a tiny Candiru fish swims up the Pope's ''[[SoundEffectBleep (censored)]]'' and lodges itself in his ''[[SoundEffectBleep (censored)]]''. Arthur grabs the Pope's ''[[SoundEffectBleep (censored)]]'' pliers and ''[[SoundEffectBleep (censored)]]'' swelled up like a melon. And the Pope says, "Thanks! Last time that happened, [=McKinley=] wanted to ''[[SoundEffectBleep (censored three times)]]''!" ''({{beat}})'' No wait! Wait! Wait, I think I told it wrong.* During talks between the POTUS and Governor Whizzer, you can take the chance to offer him a soda. Due to his...

[[AC:Episode 105: Reality 2.0]]* This bit:-->'''Bosco:''' Everyone on the internet has to pick an avatar. Like a dwarf or orc or a hot young 15 year old girl curious about the adult world and willing to experiment.-->'''Max:''' I didn't think it was possible, but he was actually less creepy as the elf.** Speaking of Bosco's ''half''-elf avatar, that one is pretty hilarious too. Or better, try hitting him with the sword when you have the wooden sword from him.

[[AC:Episode 106: Bright Side of the Moon]]* Bosco has spent the season dressing up unconvincingly as various nationalities. Then, when you meet him in this episode:-->'''Sam:''' Hey Bosc- Oh dear God.-->'''Bosco:''' ''(dressed as his mother)'' Haven't I told you boys not to track mud in the store?** When you start asking the "Do you have any..." gag that was present in all the other episodes, Bosco starts revealing that he has things that would have instantly solved the conflicts from previous episodes in stock. Watching Max just ''freak out'' that instead of going through typical adventure game monotony, they could've just bought the stuff they needed, is ''priceless''.** And after Sam has asked for all previous episodes' objects, he asks for the one you need now, which is [[spoiler: Hugh Bliss tied up behind him]]... which Bosco doesn't have.** Gets turned into a BrickJoke in 204: Chariots of the Dogs, where Sam can go behind the counter of Bosco's shop and find all of those items sat on the counter.* This exchange:-->'''Sam:''' Knowing you, Bosco, it's entirely reasonable, but how much for the earthquake maker?-->'''Bosco:''' ''(without his falsetto)'' One hundred trillion dollars.** [[spoiler:And they ''actually end up paying it.'']]** Even better is Bosco being very GenreSavvy in the matter, stating that "Look, all I know is, I keep making up the most ridiculous price I can think of, and ''you keep payin' it''! So I ask you, who's the foo'?"* Sybil's latest job: -->'''Sybil''': [[RoyalWe We]] have become the queen of Canada!-->'''Max''': I thought Music/{{Rush}} was the Music/{{Queen}} of Canada.

Ho! Ho..hhh My GOD I'M ON FIRE!!* Sam and Max are forced by the Spirit of Christmas Past to atone for stealing Jimmy's boxing glove in the previous season. The only way to return the glove to him in the past is to steal it from him in the present, creating a confusing StableTimeLoop. This completely fails to solve any of the problems you've caused him, except for his wife leaving him - because Sam kidnapped her in the past to get him in a position to take the glove from him in the present. And yet the Spirit still considers the debt repaid!* The Friendly Demon Song. Particularly some of the alternate lyrics you can have Sam sing.* The interactions with the WaxingLyrical Maimtron:--> '''Sam:''' Now tell us your manufacturing code.--> '''Maimtron:''' 867-5309.--> '''Max:''' Oh!

Sam is standing right here!* Bearing in mind that usually, [[WelcomeToCorneria Sam and Max would say exactly the same thing every time the player clicks on a certain object]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvbtcCpWf-w the Banang scene]] just gets even funnier.* The duo go back in time to collect the record contract Sam obtained in "Situation: Comedy". Past Sam & Max steal the elevator, forcing the present duo to take TheSlowPath:-->'''Max''': You... JERKS!-->'''Sam''': You made us go through the last year and a half all over again!* When Sam is trying to convince his preteen self to be more out-going, young Sam insults his weight. Present Sam then [[DisproportionateRetribution pulls out his gun]], only stopping when the time elevator AI brings up that he's about to cause a paradox.* When you need to bring Mr. Featherly from the beginning of the universe to one of the Mariachis, Sam literally [[LiveItem shoves him into his jacket]] (to his protests), takes him out when he needs to, shoves him back in, and continues to keep him in his inventory for the entire rest of the game.* When Sam, Max, and Flint Paper all come into Bosco's store looking for Bosco, Sam says that all three of them need to use every detective skill they know to find him. All three of them then immediately start shooting the air randomly before Flint asks Sam if he has any other ideas.

[[AC:Episode 205: What's New Beelzebub?]]* When Sam tries to mess around in Hugh Bliss' cubicle to sole a puzzle:--> '''Sam''': Distract Hugh Bliss for me!" --> '''Max''': Oh dear, I seem to be ''completely naked''.

That Hell was practically inescapable.-->'''Sam:''' Sorry, Satan. Your demon impostor was no match for [[PowerOfFriendship the true power of friendship and cooperation!]]-->'''Max:''' Plus I ripped out his kidneys.* [[spoiler:The reveal of the Soda Poppers as the villains in Season 2 has them demonstrating their new demonic powers to Sam & Max. Each Popper has a power related to his shtick. After a demonstration of Specs and Peepers more mundane powers, Whizzer goes last, enthusiastically telling the heroes that his power is, "''It burns when I pee!''" and then proceeding to drop his fly and then fire a ''literal'' stream of flaming urine at them!]]* Harry Moleman talking about how it's kind of tiring having to do his entire job as [[spoiler:Death]] alone, and commenting about how having an assistant or a partner would make things a lot easier.--> '''Sam:''' (look at Max, then back at Harry) Yeah, that's what you'd think, at first.* [[spoiler:Peepers]] seducing Sybil.

The only way to return the glove to him in the past is to steal it from him in the present, creating a confusing StableTimeLoop.

So anyway...\n** ''Heartily.''\n-->'''Minion:''' As they left, the general dropped this!\n-->'''Sam:''' I dropped something once. I think it was my innocence. Then I dropped my compassion. Now I just drop punks.\n-->'''Minion:''' ...Was that supposed to be dark? It doesn't even make sense.\n-->'''Sam:''' Sue me.\n** "You have a very depressing worldview."\n\n[[AC:Episode 304: Beyond the Alley of the Dolls]]\n* During the seance:\n-->'''Harry''': Uncle Morty? Is that really you? Your voice sounds funny.\n-->'''Max, Impersonating Morty''': I'VE GOT A COLD.\n-->'''Harry''': In ''Heaven?!''\n-->'''"Morty"''': And '''WHO''' said I was in HEAVEN?!\n-->'''Harry''': Uncle Morty, if that's really you, then tell me the secret you took to your grave! \n-->'''"Morty"''': Harry...my stamp collection is hidden...\n-->'''Harry''': Yes?\n-->'''"Morty"''': In the attic...\n-->'''Harry''': ''YES?''\n-->'''"Morty"''': '''''OF THE STATUE OF LIBERTY!'''''

Obviously you have to solve a puzzle to get through, but you can also just knock on the door. Quite a few times. With Sam giving different responses each time. \n-->'''Papierwaite:''' ''Who is it''?!\n-->'''Sam:''' It's the vindow viper! I've come to vipe your vindows!\n-->'''Sam:''' The restless spirit of Ed [=McMahon=], standing here with a giant novelty check!\n-->'''Sam:''' ''(dances like a ballet dancer)''\n* Check the window in Papierwaite's office.\n-->'''Sam:''' Ah cripes, a buncha Sam clones are ghost-riding the DeSoto in the parking lot!\n-->'''Max:''' When were they cloned? 2005?\n\n[[AC:Episode 305: The City that Dares Not Sleep]]\n* When Sybil goes into labor:\n-->''[Sam and Papierwaite/Norrington [[HeadTiltinglyKinky stare at her, wide-eyed]]]''.\n-->'''Norrington''': ''Pennies?!''\n* TheReveal was funny in its own way.

As he's doing this, a door suddenly opens in the background, revealing Sam coming into the room.]]\n--> [[spoiler:'''Narrator''': Do you mind? I'm right in the middle of... oh, now you've ruined it.]]\n* Junior Max's ''Anime/SailorMoon'' pose.\n** What makes this even better was that it was supposed to be Voltron based. The developers wanted to do an 'anime' pose (anime being used loosely) and one mentioned ''Anime/SailorMoon''.

Sam, I am actually an agent of a much higher power, appearing only to you and Max, to guide you in times of crisis. I believe you mortals would refer to me...as an angel.\n--> '''Sam''': Wait...really?\n-->[[spoiler:'''Narrator''':]] Of course not! That would be stupid! I am [[spoiler: the manifestation of the superego of a psychic rabbit detective mutated into a gigantic beast by a toybox filled with powerful toys from another dimension]]!

* When Sam, Max, and Flint Paper all come into Bosco's store looking for Bosco, Sam says that they all three of them need to use every detective skill they know to find him. All three of them then immediately start shooting the air randomly before Flint asks Sam if he has any other ideas.

* The puppet show our duo puts on in "The Second Show Ever:"--> '''Ms. Givens:''' Oh my, surely there's more to your occupation than just pummeling vaporous anomalies insensible!--> '''Sam:''' *falsetto* No, that's pretty much it.
